Rangers will host Hearts at the Ibrox on Wednesday in the penultimate round of the 2022-23 Scottish Premiership campaign.
The home side are playing well at the moment and are looking to end their season as strongly as possible. They beat Hibernian 3-1 in their last league outing, with James Tavernier, Ianis Hagi and former Norwich City man Todd Cantwell all getting on the scoresheet before their opponents scored a late consolation goal.
Rangers sit second in the league table with 88 points from 36 games. They will be looking to continue their good run of results this week.
Hearts have had their struggles in the league of late but remain on course to secure a UEFA Europa Conference League playoff spot at the end of the season. They returned to winning ways last weekend with a 2-1 comeback win over Aberdeen featuring goals from Josh Ginnelly and Lawrence Shankland.
The visitors sit fourth in the table with 52 points picked up so far and will secure continental football with a win on Wednesday.
